FLUSHING, N.Y. - The Queens College men's soccer team surrendered two stunning goals in the final 1:35 and fell 4-3 to NYIT Sunday afternoon at QC Soccer Field. With the result, the Knights moved to 5-6-4 on the year and 2-3-2 in East Coast Conference competition.

With victory close at hand, the Knights saw the visiting Bears tie the game at three apiece in the 89th minute on a goal by Alejandro Del Cura. With 57 seconds remaining, Martin Sundell tallied his second of the game when a midfield cross was tipped over QC goalkeeper James Brostowski and into the back of the net.

Seniors Georgios Thomatos, Nikolas Maher and junior Daniel Saint Louis were responsible for the QC goals. Thomatos got the Knights on the board in the eighth minute when his shot trickled in after NYIT goalkeeper Jonathan Rico was unable to collect the ball.
